Real Nazis murdered six million Jewish people and millions of other people that the Nazis deemed undesirable, including 'gypsies', blacks, homosexuals, socialists, and many others. The Nazis accomplished the mass murder through the most horrific means possible.
As a pedestrian, I've encountered plenty of arrogant and thoughtless bicyclists. However, I have enough understanding and perspective of history to not use the Nazi label.
Your use of the "Nazi" to describe overzealous bicyclists reflects really poorly on you.
Go to the library and crack open a few books on Europe in the 1930s and 1940s in general and the Holocaust in particular.
